Validation question?

[eluser]chobo[/eluser]
Sorry if this sounds a bit dumb, but when you guys repopulate fields do you always write it as a condition? I've seen a few projects that don't test if its been set, including the documentation. If I don't test I end up with an undefined error, is this because I'm not using the form helper? Thanks

Ex

Code:

<?php echo isset($this->validation->fieldOne) ? $this->validation->fieldOne : ''; ?>
